You are a wonderful class and I have really enjoyed teaching you.
I have been so impressed by all your hard work during the school closures. You should be very proud of yourselves.

Each of you have many qualities, strengths and talents but I have chosen just one of your achievements to recognise in these

As always, you can contact me by email at sarah.culliton@stjosephsgorey.ie.
I hope you have a safe and funfilled summer!

Hello everyone,

Well done again! I saw great work being done in English and Maths last week. However, there was a lot of work in last week’s choice board so feel free to keep working from that one if there’s more you wanted to do. Continue to work towards finishing the last few pages in your books.

This week I am including three choice boards which are revision in English, Maths and activities relates to Wellbeing. Try to choose something from each choice board everyday. And don’t forget to send me your work as always.

For any parents who haven’t already received their child’s school report you can contact me at sarah.culliton@stjosephsgorey.ie and I will send it to you.

Hi boys and girls,

I hope you enjoyed your virtual school tour last week! I’m delighted that so many of you are continuing to send me your weekly work. You are doing so well and I’m very proud of you.
Most of you have signed up to Epic and guess what… you have read over 50 books between you so far! 😲 We even got a badge.

This week we will just focus on Maths and English but feel free to finish off your other school books if you have them at home.
All of this week’s work is included in our final Choice Board.

Please remember you are not expected to do every activity.
Pick and choose from the choice board and try to do approx. 15 minutes of Maths and 15 minutes of English each day. Continue to send me your work to sarah.culliton@stjosephsgorey.ie

Hi everyone,

• Dutch Hollow dairy farm
• Áras an Uachtaráin
